Vice President JD Vance made up a theoretical threat straight out of science fiction to justify the ongoing war on Iran. It would most certainly be a tragedy if Iranian combatants had access to exploding nuclear vests—except they don’t, and it would be impossible to construct such a device.
“The president summarized this very ably. But look, the Iranian conventional military is effectively destroyed. They don’t have a navy. They don’t have the ability to hit us like they could have a few weeks ago,” Vance said during a press conference.
